Chapter 655 - We'll support you, Mr. Yan.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mali Prefecture.

 

Doripo.

 

The outbuilding of the midshipman.

 

 

 

around noon.

 

Four old men and one young man sat around the audience.

 

It is the Venerable Taeeul and the four servants of Soyojong, who came down from the hills.

 

It was the first meeting of the leaders after the fight between Yeon Jeok-ha and Tae-eul.

 

The atmosphere of the meeting was markedly different from before.

 

The three gentlemen did not speak openly, but everyone looked at the jeokha.

 

The Venerable Taeeul, who came out of Jingyong, said, “It was solved well,” but no one believed him.

 

The two of them were different from the color of the line.

 

Venerable Taeeul's hair and clothes were disheveled, but they were as they were when they first started taking.

 

There were even bloodstains around the nose of Venerable Taeeul!

 

Even after seeing that, no one thought he was ‘well done’.

 

Venerable Taeeul put a scroll of parchment on the table with a casual expression on his face.

 

It was a memorandum of understanding with the Cheontae sect that was accepted but never read.

 

“Hum, this is the memorandum of understanding that Mr. Yeon received from Venerable Hyemun not long ago. Since the Tiantai sect wants to proceed according to the memorandum of understanding, let's review it. Choyo-san, will you read it for me?”

 

At the request of the Venerable Taeeul, Mrs. Choyosan unfolded the parchment scroll.

 

“… … After the end of the war, one soldier from each of the Cheontae Order and Soyo Order is selected to compete. The victor will be entrusted with the disposition of the Thunder Bell.”

 

For a moment, the eyes of the soldiers turned to the Venerable Taeeul.

 

It was because it was like entrusting the sword dance with the fate of the Chun-roe sect to the ‘employee’ rather than the ‘servant’.

 

Venerable Taeeul was also reluctant, but now he could not return the memorandum of understanding.

 

It was all the more so because he had a history of working hand in hand with Chun Lei Zong.

 

“I think this is in our favor. In our soyojong, there is a yeonjegun.”

 

At the words of the Venerable Tae-eul, Cho Yo-san's army saw Yeonjeok-ha.

 

He is so talented that even a servant cannot match him, so no matter who comes out of the Cheontae Order, he will not be able to compete with him.

 

By the way, would you like to consult with the Venerable Tae-eul on the disposition of Chun-roe-jong?

 

What if you make decisions on your own without consulting them?

 

It can't be, but what if he even pretends to be crazy and wants to get a Thunder Bell?

 

For an instant, his heart sank.

 

Tian Taizong received the help of the Yan Jeok He, and he will support him.

 

‘Then, you, Yeon Jeok-ha, will become the owner of the Chun-lei Bell… … .’

 

In any case, there is no sect in the Chun Lei sect.

 

They, too, may wish for the dominion of the younger siblings.

 

If you're a younger brother, you'll have more than enough to become the servant of the Savior in the future.

 

It feels like what started to occupy the Astronomical Gate is somehow getting more complicated.

 

The Choyosan gentlemen glanced at the Yeonjeokha gentlemen.

 

All of this happened because Yeon Jeok-ha was too good.

 

If he is one step below the Venerable Taeeul, he is Hongbok of So-yojong, but now he has become the culprit of the conflict.

 

After signing two memorandums of understanding, Venerable Taeeul presented one to Yeonjeokha.

 

“Comrade Yeon, please bring it to the Venerable Hyemun. And while you're at it, decide when and where you'll do your military service. Because we can’t sit around in Wansanju forever.”

 

“I see.”

 

Yeonjeokha took a scroll of parchment.

 

Anyway, the only person who could do such a thing in Soyojong was himself.

 

With that the meeting was over.

 

It happened first because it was urgent to implement the memorandum of understanding between the two clans.

 

 

 

Even after Yeon Jeok-ha left, Venerable Taeeul and the three soldiers guarded the meeting room.

 

A heavy silence hung over the meeting room.

 

Venerable Taeeul, who was contemplating something, suddenly turned his gaze to Emperor Jingon.

 

“What happened?”

 

It's a slightly different way of speaking than Hao Che, which I usually talk to my fellow soldiers.

 

Venerable Taeeul was so angry that he even gave up formal respect for you.

 

“As soon as we arrived at Chollipo, Yeon Jegun told the left army. 'It's not that people talk twice with one mouth. I decided to help the Tiantai sect, so let's break up. If you touch the Cheontae bell in Chollipo today, you will die by my hand.’ Then, as you know, this is what happened. In such a situation, I couldn’t have the Left Army strike the Tiantai Bell.”

 

At Jingon's words, Venerable Taeeul nodded his head.

 

Although the left army acted differently from its own command, it was a good thing.

 

In that situation, if Emperor Jingon's left army foolishly attacked the Tiantai sect, Soya Zong would have had to fight both the Chunlau sect and the Tiantai sect.

 

'In the end, it's a matter of overlapping.'

 

Venerable Taeeul was relieved to know that Emperor Jingon still followed him.

 

“Hmm! The earlier memorandum of understanding was made by Emperor Yeon and Venerable Hyemun. Until I read the memorandum of understanding, I couldn't understand why Mr. Yeon protested. But I knew the moment I heard the contents of the memorandum of understanding. It seems that Mr. Yeon is greedy for the Chun Lei sect.”

 

“… … .”

 

The three gentlemen looked shocked, but didn't say anything.

 

It's good to say that the result of the non-muji was already decided.

 

Yeonjeokha will win the match.

 

The problem is then

 

Will he offer the Tianleo Bell to the Venerable Taeeul?

 

Considering his uncomfortable relationship with the Venerable Taeeul, this is unlikely.

 

Wouldn't you know if the jeokha is an idiot?

 

There is no reason to remain in Soyojong without a promise while receiving such treatment from the Venerable Taeeul.

 

If it was his inaction, it was natural that he would become the number one servant of Tian-lei and aim for the servant of the Savior.

 

Mrs. Choyosan asked cautiously.

 

“What would happen if Emperor Yan said he would become the master of the Bell of Chun Lei?”

 

“If the memorandum of understanding is followed… … . I cannot object.”

 

“… … .”

 

Mrs. Choyosan looked at the Venerable Taeeul with devastated eyes.

 

To think that one clan could be completely passed over to you, who are not even servants!

 

Even if this was the first period of great change in the history of the sect, it was too much.

 

Then, the Han San-wol intervened with a disapproving face.

 

“Are you handing over the Thunder Bell to Mr. Yan? Such a thing cannot and should not be. Why did we come down Mount Zhong? The thunder bell must be of the required bell. Otherwise, only the status of the required species will decrease.”

 

“Do you have the confidence to convince Gen. Han?”

 

Regarding the question of the Venerable Taeeul, Emperor Han Sanwol could not answer.

 

Venerable Taeeul turned his head to Jingon.

 

“How does Jin look? Did you think that the King Yeon would be greedy for the Chun Lei Bell?”

 

“It wasn't until you reached Chollipo that Yeon's army expressed its intention to rebel. To be honest, I don't know a thing about him. Whatever he chooses will be surprising.”

 

“Hmm, I think the same as you. After he protested at Chollipo, I gave up speculating about him. I have no choice but to trust him... … .”

 

Venerable Taeeul frowned as he stopped talking.

 

It reminded me of a conversation I had with Yeon Jeok-ha before descending from Jongsan.

 

 

 

—… … What would you do if I rejected the memorandum of understanding?

 

—… … He has no choice but to trust.

 

 

 

However, in the end, he gave an order that contradicted his belief.

 

As I recalled the events of that day, the word “believe and go” seemed ominous.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

I hurriedly crossed the Baekri River, fearing that another word might come out in the Haeng-yeo, So-yo or Cheon-tae sects.

 

The coast of Cheollipo was clean.

 

Without looking closely, it was difficult to know that a fierce battle had taken place here.

 

Apart from that, the eyes of the masters of the Tiantai sect in river were sharp.

 

I don't know if it's just the aftermath of the fight or if it's just being wary of the soyojong across Baekriha.

 

If you don't want to be misunderstood unnecessary, you should go down to the ground at this point.

 

Clouds carrying the Yeonjeokha gently landed in front of the masters of the Tiantai sect.

 

The masters of the Tiantai sect bowed their heads happily.

 

When the favor was conveyed from the other party, he waved his hand with a smiling face.

 

Seeing that kind of welcome, it doesn't seem to be a boundary for soyo species.

 

 

 

Cheollipo.

 

The annex of Eunsugaekjan.

 

 

 

He presented a memorandum of understanding with the Venerable Taeeul to the Venerable Hyemun.

 

“He gave me a hand-to-hand a while ago. He asked me to come and decide when and where to do the dance in spite of my friend?”

 

Venerable Hyemun smiled and opened the memorandum of understanding.

 

“Did the Venerable Taeeul do the sugyeol without saying anything?”

 

“Yes, why?”

 

"I thought I'd object to the clause entrusting you to you, but surprisingly."

 

“Before that, I had a fight with him.”

 

“Heh heh heh! I guess so too I heard that Soyojong did not enter Doripo right away yesterday. I thought there was something to be sorted out internally, but it must have been because of Mr. Yeon.”

 

“Did you monitor the required species?”

 

“It seems that our gentlemen secretly followed Taeeul, believing that they would not trust him.”

 

"why?"

 

“What we believe in is Mr. Yeon, not Venerable Taeeul. It was dark in front of my eyes yesterday morning when So-yo-jong passed Cheon-roe-jong and entered Chollipo. ‘It’s over!’ I was in despair, but I heard Yeon’s cry.”

 

"ah… … .”

 

Then yeon jeokha, who was embarrassed for nothing, scratched his head.

 

It seems that Venerable Hyemun heard what he said to the left army at Chollipo that morning.

 

“Honestly, among the members of the Tiantai sect, there is no one who can surpass Emperor yeon. The winner of this match will be Yeon Jae-gun. So, sir, what are you going to do with the Chun Lei Bell?”

 

“What are you doing?”

 

“It is because of you, sir, that I have entrusted the disposition of the Chun Lei Bell to you.”

 

"Me?"

 

"exactly. I think that Emperor yeon should be the master of the Bell of Chun Lei.”

 

“Am I not a servant?”

 

“The Venerable Gwangseong of the Tianlai sect is in the hands of the Tiantai sect. Take his aura, which he has forbidden through self-sufficiency. If you don't, I'll be able to advance the realm of a servant.”

 

“Absorb the aura of the Venerable Gwangseong?”

 

“Anyway, he has been taking the spirits of masters of other sects until now. No one will point fingers at Mr. Yeon for taking his aura.”

 

“So, after taking the spiritual energy of the Venerable Gwangseong, he is to become the master of the Thunder Bell?”

 

“Right.”

 

Yeonjeokha, who was thinking deeply, asked Venerable Hyemun.

 

“But why are you giving me such preferential treatment? I think you can take the aura of the Venerable Gwangseong yourself.”

 

“I am a person who has already gathered spirits to the limit. Now, all that remains is to polish it neatly. That's why I'm trying to give you a chance."

 

“There are many gentlemen in the Tiantai sect, too.”

 

"so I'm going to give it to Yeon. If one of the members of the Tiantai sect takes possession of the aura of the venerable Kwangseong, infighting will arise.”

 

Where are the quarrels between you?

 

It was also a headache when the nobles who took the spiritual energy of the venerable Gwangseong became servants.

 

Rather than seeing that, it would have been better to give it to the jeokha and show condescension.

 

“Then should we rather hand over the Venerable Gwangseong to the winner of the battle? That way, I don’t think there will be back talk.”

 

"oh! That's a good idea too. Then, will you become the master of the Thunder Bell?”

 

“What if I become the master of the Thunder Bell? After that?”

 

“Let’s join hands with the Tiantai sect and block other sects. We will support you, gentlemen.”

 

He said that he would join hands with the Tiantai sect and block other sects, and would support them.

 

For some reason, it sounded like ‘I will put you in the forefront of the war between clans’.

 

Yeonjeokha, who had gone through greening and gold in the river, recognized Venerable Hyemun's ulterior motive at once.

 

However, it was a welcome sound to Yeon Jeok-ha, who had to obtain the Nine School Gates.

 

“Anyway, would you like to do that?”
